Sumr Monroe nodded and said obediently, "Got it."
With her response, Henry Stanton finally went to work with peace of mind.
In a good mood, he even humd a local song on his way out: "Feels like life has reached its peak, feels like life has reached its climax..."
There was no trace of soone who had just lost another daughter.
Sumr Monroe watched Henry Stanton’s departing figure and scratched her ear.
This person is really annoying...
During lunch, Sumr Monroe once again retrieved her silent phone, feeling both puzzled and irritated. What on earth was Damian Knight busy with? Why did he keep hanging up on her?
After lunch, she reached out to dial Damian Knight’s number again, but just as her finger was about to hit the call button, she pulled her hand back.
Nah, forget it.
If Damian Knight was busy, calling him now would still result in rejection. She might as well wait for Damian Knight to call her back when he’s free.
Surely he couldn’t be busy all day?
With this thought, Sumr Monroe felt much better. She went upstairs, changed into casual clothes, tied her hair in a schoolgirl ponytail, and left with a backpack.
Since obtaining her postdoctoral degree, she hadn’t engaged with campus life for a long ti. This was a good opportunity to shift her recent gloomy mood.
anwhile, Mio Osborne finally found out Willow Grant’s current address—Knight Manor.
Knight Manor was enormous, with the land in front of the main building alone larger than a football field. Even the small road leading to the back gate stretched endlessly. The manor also housed a chapel and a private hospital, aning life, illness, and death could all occur within its grounds.
Standing in front of Knight Manor, Mio Osborne’s usually serious eyes showed a rare shock.
His family was an educational household; his parents and ancestors were teachers for two generations. Their background was considered very well-off, yet he had never been to such a luxurious place.
Especially since this place was located in the highly coveted Crestfall.
Initially estimating, the manor’s value must exceed four billion.
However, what truly shocked Mio Osborne wasn’t the manor’s size and opulence, but the fact that Willow Grant was residing in the Knight Family ntioned by the university president?
Could it be that the student the university president wanted to place in his class was Willow Grant?
If so, that would certainly please him greatly.
Mio Osborne cald himself and pressed the doorbell.
Soon, a guard inside ca out, asking seriously but without disdain, "Sir, who are you looking for?"
Mio Osborne handed over his Crestfall University faculty ID and introduced himself, "I am a specially appointed lecturer at Crestfall University, here to see Miss Willow Grant. Is Miss Grant available?"
"Miss Grant..." The guard said, "Please wait a mont," before turning back to the security room to dial the internal line, explaining the situation to the villa’s security.
Inside the manor villa, Susan Stone was having lunch with Willow Grant.
While eating, Susan Stone advised, "You have to report this afternoon, make sure you don’t leave anything behind. But if you do, no worries, I’ll have soone send it over."
Willow Grant nodded with a smile, "Sure, Auntie. I’ll check everything once more before I leave."
Just as she finished speaking, security walked in.
The two of them instinctively looked over, seeing the security personnel bow respectfully before speaking, "Madam, a lecturer from Crestfall University is here to see Miss Grant."
Willow Grant parted her lips slightly in surprise, nervously asking, "What do they want with ? What’s his na?"
